This books discusses the idea of 'Digital Dissensus', a concept that proposes rethinking the relationship between social media and politics through a different understanding of democracy. This is because the way we approach the relationship between social media and politics is largely shaped by how we understand democracy and the political. To date, approaches seeking to explain this relationship have predominantly taken liberal democracy as their point of departure, evaluating political experiences emerging in digital spaces within this framework. By contrast, this book treats democracy not as one of the criteria for analysing social media, but as its point of departure. Rather than judging political experiences in digital spaces according to the established standards of liberal democracy, it asks what forms of inequality, exclusion, and contradiction these experiences render visible within the existing order. Could rethinking democracy lead us to see the relationship between social media and politics differently?
